Joining Morris in the winner’s circle were LaGrange’s David Osbahr besting the field in the Newnan Bonding B Cadets, Covington’s Sam ‘Bam’ Carter in the Summit Racing Equipment Hobby Stock, Hampton’s Marc Leath in the Senoia Drug Company Mini Stock and Dustin Smith in the A1 Hydraulics Bomber. James ‘Showtime’ Stansel of Douglasville won his debut piloting a Legends Car winning the main event for the motorcycle engine powered race cars.

Morris qualified on the pole for the first time this season, but had to hold off former track champion Lavon Sparks at the drop of the green. Sparks tried valiantly to get past Morris, but slipped allowing him to move out front. The slip continued three laps later when Fulcher was able to get past and secure second.

Fulcher caught up to Morris near the end, but Morris was on a mission to gain his first win of the season and pad his points lead. Sparks ended up third ahead of Brooks Jayce Southwell and LaGrange’s Tod Darda.

The Jodeco Auto Sales Late Models will compete in a special event this Saturday, June 14th as Country Financial presents the Father’s Day Late Model Summer Shoot-Out. The 30-lap feature will pay $1,500 to win and $100 to start. It is the largest purse offered during the five year tenure for track promoter Tim Moses.

“The late model race was kind of a warm-up for the Country Financial Father’s Day Late Model Summer Shoot-Out,” said promoter Tim Moses. “Glenn, Shane and Lavon are primed to take on the Bull Ring next weekend and see who will take home the biggest purse I have ever posted. I hope the drivers come out to support the show.”

Bowden’s Wesley Lyle and Jonesboro’s Jason Miller battled for the lead in the feature for the Newnan Bonding B Cadet. Lyle was the race’s first leader, but cut a tire near the middle of the race forcing him to the pit area. Miller inherited the lead while a pair of LaGrange drviers fought it out for the second place spot. David OsBahr and Buck Ussery ran side by side for several laps before Osbahr was able to break loose and then tackle Miller for the lead.

With only seven laps remaining, Osbahr with Ussery on the inside moved up in turn one then sliced to the low side out of turn two to get a run on Miller. The two raced to turn three with Osbahr getting the advantage and overtaking the number one spot. He would go on to record his fourth victory of the year. Miller finished second and moved into the divisional points lead while Ussery had his best finish at the Bull Ring in third.

The fans thought the best race of the night was once again in the Summit Racing Equipment Hobby Stock. Sam Carter started on the outside front row with many of the hottest drivers starting further back in the field. Carter darted to the initial lead while Williamson’s Houston Hatchett and Franklin duo Ben and Chris Steele patiently waited for opportunities to gain positions and move towards the front. Forsyth’s ‘Wild’ Bill Brown, Milner’s Ben Wells and Griffin’s Chad Foster were emblazoned in a dog fight while Carter moved further and further into the lead.

As the cross flags came out for the halfway mark, Hatchett and Chris Steele were able to work past Brown and Wells. A caution also closed up the field allowing the fast climbing pair to restart closer to Carter and Foster. The restart was costly for Foster as he slid high in turn two giving the room to Hatchett and then Steele to move on past. The boys chased down Carter, but were unable to overcome the leader.

Carter won his second of the season ahead of points leader Hatchett and Chris Steele. Foster would come home in fourth with Brown rounding out the first five.

A pair of Senoia drivers squared off in the A1 Hydraulics Bomber main as Dustin Smith and Winford Minix decided the outcome. Smith led for the entire race as Minix worked his way towards the front. A late race caution assisted Minix in catching Smith, but the checkers would fly over Smith first at the finish line with Minix settling for the runner-up spot this week after winning the previous Saturday. Griffin rookie Alex Rudolph was third followed by Jay Conner of Alvaton and Josh Roddy of Palmetto.

Marc Leath held off a mid-race charge by Hampton’s Brandon Brock to win the race for the Mini Stock while Douglasville’s James ‘Showtime’ Stansel kept former national legend car dirt champion Dwight Pilgram at bay for the Legends Car laurels. It was the first time that Stansel had ever raced a Legends Car.
